Taiwanese authentic braised pork rice
There are many varieties of rice snacks in Taiwan, but the most famous ones are braised pork rice and Chiayi chicken rice. It is said that only Taiwanese people in the world can cook the unique flavor of braised pork rice.
So, what are the conditions for an authentic bowl of braised pork rice? Lu pork rice is different from pork rice. Meat rice is made from lean meat, while Lu pork rice is made from fat meat. The rice should be fragrant and tough, the braised pork should be juicy, fat but not greasy, and the crisp and delicious pickled pickles are really irresistible. To make such delicious braised pork rice, the key is that the meat must be blanched to remove the fishy smell and then stewed until it is full of flavor. Any link that is not done properly will reduce the taste of the braised pork rice. The taste of the dishes varies according to individual recipes, but this dish has been personally developed based on my own many years of experience. The taste is full of color, aroma and fragrance, which will fill your mouth.
